“Your Highness… Crown Prince.”

She mumbled in surprise.

“You are so strong.”

At those words, Cersinia was surprised and released the wrist that she was holding.

“I’m sorry. I thought it might be a thug, so I was rude.”

“No, it’s my fault to catch you from behind.”

Limapheus turned his painful wrist around. Cersinia was trembling because the man who hid his appearance was the Crown Prince.

‘Why did we meet again? Why?’

For Cersinia, Limapheus was the number one person she hated encountering the most. Who likes to encounter someone who will cut your neck in the future?

“You must have something you want to know.”

Limapheus glanced at the sign of the information guild, which was attached to the hallway.

“Because it’s personal.”

Cersinia didn’t hide her displeasure. Even though he is the Crown Prince, she didn’t want to talk about her personal life.

“I think I can help you.”

Seeing a smirk on his face, Cersinia widened their distance from him. As expected, Limapheus is a dangerous person with whom she should not be close.

“Nothing seems better quality than the information from me.”

Seeing Cersinia distancing, Limapheus added. He didn’t want to miss something that looked interesting at first glance.

“I’m thankful for what you say, but I don’t know if you have the information I want and the reason you’re helping me.”

Cersinia is still suspicious of him and is setting up a boundary wall. To be honest, there is nothing wrong with the Crown Prince’s words. Nothing was better than the information that the Crown Prince of the Empire could obtain. But she wasn’t desperate enough to join hands with the most dangerous person. Besides, to be together openly with him, Cersinia hated him so terribly.

“I can find the information about whatever it is. Even if it’s about the Grand Duke Shorevarce.”

Limapheus bent his eyes and smiled. At the words of Grand Duke coming out with his strange smile, Cersinia’s shoulders stiffened.

‘What the hell. Is this man reading my thoughts? Or is this the male protagonist buff or something like that…?’

For no reason, Cersinia grumbled inside and stared at him. He was having a good smile as he was having a lot of fun.

“There’s nothing I don’t know.”

Limapheus was thrilled when Cersinia reacted to the Alex story he had brought up out of fear. He skimmed through it, and it worked fine. Even Alex struggles with Cersinia, but Cersinia is curious about Alex’s story. They couldn’t get past the ironic situation.

“I will only accept your kindness.”

Cersinia politely refused. It was taken for granted. Because it was difficult for her to have a conversation with the person she should not be involved with the most.

‘And I don’t know how much the Crown Prince knows about Ben.’

Limapheus might not know that Ben was enslaved in the past, so she couldn’t even bring it up first. Just because he is the male protagonist doesn’t mean he knows everything that wasn’t detailed in the original novel.

“It’s a shame, but don’t use the information guild. Information guild is absolutely illegal in the Empire, and it will disappear after today. Please don’t waste your money.”

Cersinia frowned at his clear voice. Limapheus was smiling softly with a relaxed face. She couldn’t use the information guild, so she had a contemptuous expression about what to do now. But she put up with the desire to slap his annoying face because he is playing around with her.

Cersinia won’t fall for it. If the information guild could not be used, it was enough to hire people and pay them more. Her expression was firm, as if she had no intention of doing what he wanted.

“I’ll tell you one thing first.”

Limapheus raised the white flag first, looking at Cersinia, who had not fallen over. She was such a strong woman. She looked just like an ordinary woman, but her stubbornness was amazing.

“It’s okay. I will find it out by myself.”

“Do you know that there is a hidden space in the Grand Duchy?”

Limaphues ignored her words. Cersinia glared at him suspiciously, who rushed his words. She needs to find out what he’s up to. However, she couldn’t help but be tempted by the words she heard.

“A very deep, dark place is hidden so that most people cannot find it.”

“Why are you telling me this?”

“You don’t know how far I know, so you don’t trust me. That’s why. If you check it, you will know if what I’m saying is true or not and how far I know.”

Cersinia’s mouth was closed by a surprising remark. The novel said that Limapheus is good at martial arts, but he had an excellent ability to see through people

“Let’s check it out and talk about it again then.”

He seemed to be confident. Cersinia doesn’t think he’s lying. He had nothing to gain by lying.

“All right.”

‘I didn’t like it and didn’t want it, but what can I do?’

Since she has already heard it, she will have to check it out.

“I guess you’re not with that woman today.”

Now that the business was over, he looked around and looked for Verne.

“She said that there was something she needed to buy at the store, so we decided to meet again later.”

Cersinia did not take her eyes off Limapheus. It was to see how he would react when Verne’s story was brought up.

“Where did you decide to meet? I’ll take you there.”

‘Am I mistaken that he looks more lively than before?’

She wanted to refuse, but she hoped that Verne and Limapheus frequently met, so she guided him. Because both of them need to fall in love to get married, and that’s how the novel ends.

The two met with Verne, who was waiting. Unlike yesterday, Verne looked a little more stable. Cersinia walked with them to where the carriage was. Limapheus and Verne talked to each other as they said hello as if they were forgetting about her. Cersinia slowly retreated back.

“Huh…”

Seeing Verne, who spoke shyly with her cheeks blushing, and Limapheus, who didn’t stop smiling softly, Cersinia burst into laughter. It felt like she became the third wheel between the couple on their first date. Cersinia unintentionally became the steppingstone between the two.

The next day, Cersinia searched the mansion secretly with May and Verne.

‘A very deep, dark place is hidden so that most people cannot find it.’

The only place that came to her mind was the basement when it came to a very deep and dark place in the mansion. However, she couldn’t even find the stairs or the door leading to the basement. She asked the servants, but no one knew about it.

“Isn’t this a lie?”

Cersinia, exhausted from scouring the large mansion, sat down randomly in the hallway. Even if it is hidden so that most people cannot find it, how can it be so inconspicuous, and nobody knows? She felt upset because it felt like she had been tricked by Limapheus.

“Shall we look for a little more? We haven’t even looked around half of the mansion yet.”

Verne cheered her up from the side. However, Cersinia couldn’t cheer up when she heard that the three of them were looking around the mansion for a day, but they hadn’t seen half of the mansion.

“It’s too broad for a human being. It’s useless.”

May nodded her head vigorously, agreeing with that.

“Then take a break here for a while. I’ll go look around the annex.”

Even before she said it was okay, Verne was already running down the hallway like a bullet.

“Then I will go look around again to see if I missed anything.”

When May stepped up, Cersinia stood up because she couldn’t just sit still. She was the one who wanted to know, so she couldn’t fool around like this alone. Shook her, butt, she walked down the hallway to the left, which she hadn’t yet looked around. As Verne said, they haven’t looked around the half of the mansion yet, so Cersinia looks for it again, but she doubts whether she can trust Limapheus words 100%.

‘Please don’t let it be vain.’

Cersinia walked around the hall, which was nothing special. When she saw a slight dent, she pressed it unconditionally. She thought it might be the button that opened the secret door, although nothing happened.

As she looked around with her eyes for a long time, her stomach growled. Surprised by the loud enough sound that rang the quiet hallway, she grabbed her stomach. There was no one around, but her ears turned red with embarrassment. The evening was approaching as she saw the sun slowly setting down. All she ate today was a simple breakfast, so she could have been hungry. She decided to stop at this point for today. Verne and May must be hungry too because they didn’t eat properly, just like her.

Cersinia went back the way she came. Then, suddenly, she found two people walking down the opposite hallway. A man who opens the door to the parlor room with an expressionless face all the time. A woman with blue hair with an infinitely beautiful smile next to him. Cersinia hurriedly hid her body behind the pillar. Those two were Ben and Aronia Blenzuan.
